It's a complete inability to direct myself to do a task, even when it is extremely simple. For example, paying a bill, or responding to a text message. I want to do it, but the task seems insurmountable. I eventually complete the tasks by sheer attrition, but it feels like I'm walking over hot coals. Guanfacine helps significantly.
